elusive noise

[dun4791]

Well I got the blower and cam cover off tonight- no obvious problems. Everything looks good. Next step is a leak test, then maybe put the blower back on and run the car with the cover off. Might not be valve noise after all, maybe spun a bearing. Ill keep everyone posted. Looks like a DSS,VT or Keith Craft might be in the future if it turns out to be a rod knock.......Lyle

Damn Lyle.

Is it in the bottom of the motor? Haven't heard of too many rod related failures on these motors at our power level.

Going to test the lifters- If cant find anything wrong then I guess I needed better pistons anyway.
I have only read of about 4 or 5 that lost the bottom running 17lbs. But I guess maybe I have the luck HUH...............Lyle
